The best men’s picks from the SSENSE sale
Ever since Carhartt was founded 133 years ago, it has never ceased to slap with its über-durable denim, jackets, beanies, and more skatepark-friendly wares. And the brand’s high-fashion sub-label, Carhartt W.I.P. gets to have even more fun toying with its traditional workwear materials and silhouettes. Grab this cozy signature-brown jacket for 40% off, or score some comfy black trousers for 55% off.

Cool-kid designers like Bode and Acne Studios are on serious, sale, too, so save big on this carnival-inspired shirt (49% off) and a glow-in-the-dark sweatshirt that looks very black metal but also very expensive (they don’t have to know you copped it for 45% off).
Baby, it’s cold outside. In fact, it’s snowing in NYC as we continue to rip through the best of SSENSE’s discounted winter jawns. Save hundreds on puffers from brands such as Isabel Marant and Girlfriend Collective, and don’t miss the scarf offerings from Acne Studios and ERL, which has a charming, Midwestern leaf pile-esque scarf for 80% off.

Similarly, the brand’s dragon-embellished skirt would look great with a black turtleneck and knee-high boots.
Top pants selects: Agolde’s stovepipe-style Lana jeans; Ganni’s cargo pants; Levi’s ribcage jeans in a classic blue wash.
